Challenge # 122 - Use a Vintage Item

Hi there!

It's Rosanne with this week's Little Red Wagon challenge (on the 29th of Feburary even!) and I decided to pick a vintage theme; you need to use a vintage item somewhere on your creation.

One of my favourite things to do right now is browse through antique and thrift stores, you never know what you will find.

And I decided to dedicate two pages in my smashbook to this newer past-time:

These pages have photos of some of my antiqued items as well as vintage papers, milk tickets, food stamps, ribbon and buttons.

So dig into those wagons for your vintage bits and link up your creation, we love to see what you create.

Challenge #120 - Twinkle, Twinkle...

I am super pumped about my first challenge on Little Red Wagon...

My challenge to you is to use three stars on your project. you can use chipboard to make the stars. You could even use the pattern paper as your guide. I even thought about using star embellies on my card. Anyway you want to put some stars on a project...go for it!!

But here is my rendition of my challenge.

I managed to use some great old SEI paper from my wagon.
A bright cheerful card on this winter day.

Enjoy and I look forward to seeing your creations!

Challenge #119 - Cupid's Arrow

Happy Wednesday all! It's my first time to host the challenge here at Little Red Wagon (be kind)

The challenge is called "Cupid's Arrow".

I want to see an arrow (or arrows) on your card . . . and they don't have to be Cupid's arrow or Valentine's day cards.

I've made 2 cards. Here's one that is for Valentine's.

I stamped my sentiment (with the arrow) in black ink first, then stamped around it repeatedly in red to create a patterned paper look.

Here's a non-Valentine's card with ARROWS as the main image.

So, go ahead and get creative! Can't wait to see how you incorporate an arrow
(or 2 or 3) on your card!

Be sure to link your project below!

Challenge # 118 - Valentine's Day or love

Hey everyone. For my very first time to post the challenge here at Little Red Wagon I thought I'd make it an easy one......let's see those Valentines or lovey-dovey creations.

Here's mine:

I used a digi stamp from Tiddly Inks and I dug deep into my wagon and pulled out some of last year's Valentine's paper.

Add your project to Mister Linky below. Can't wait to see 'em!

The Story

One day a group of girlfriends got together to play with their papers, stamps, markers, ribbons, buttons and the rest of their seemingly endless supply of other 'have-to-have' scrapbooking and card making goodies. It was so much fun to talk, share, laugh and create with each other that they decided to create a blog that would motivate, inspire and challenge them on a weekly basis to use some of the supplies they have acquired. They also thought it would be fun to have all the other girlfriends out there join in and share their creations based on the weekly challenges. So, grab your wagon full of goodies (we know you have one!), get creative and have fun!
